Answer : Bcan explain..pls

Question is not of good qualitybased on the logic used by the person who wrote the questionhalf of cost has been consumed and 0.75% of EV has been earnedso CPI= EV/AC = 0.75.0.5 = 1.5

However this is not right way of doing math as you are assuming both the resources are of same cost.
